Hoppers (2026): What’s within us
I watched Hoppers (2026) at the cinema today — it has been some time since I saw a movie by Disney+Pixar. It looked really cute in the trailer which did its job of intriguing me enough to watch. Here are some of my initial thoughts after watching:
SPOILERS AHEAD (You’ve been warned)
- One of the questions the movie grapples with is whether people are fundamentally good, no matter how flawed. When it has the Animal King, George offer grace to the supposed villain of the story, Mayor Jerry, who then comes around — it makes me think what a gift grace can be.
- Mabel’s grandmother ‘s advice to connect with nature to feel like you’re a part of something bigger was a good reminder that expanding our perspective beyond the confines of our skull is essential to being a better person.
